Yeah, agreed.
I was hesitant before posting. It isn't a like-for-like comparison.

Wow. That is pretty shocking.
FWIW the London Bridge attack was over within something like 8 minutes of the Polis having received the first call.

Yep, You are correct.
Shooting fish inna barrel :)

ETA - Anyway, you're just sulking because it remains south of the river ;-)

I have a CSB regarding this roundabout, but I'll keep schtum.
Schtum, schtum, schtum.[/DonLogan]
Because if I tell, this tag'll last no time at all.
FWIW I'm harmless/useless for tagging at the moment - I've been nursing a sprained ankle the best part of the last two weeks :(

Indeed - why would you?
Unless you were doing an e bay scam .
Or something.

Don't hang about - I think they're a limited run.
John Lewis won't sell you more than five.

Lovely.
I did the same.
Finished mine two Saturdays ago.
Just before going to see the new Blade Runner film at the iMax.
That was a crazy, crazy day.
Comme ça

For information rather than boastpost, this is how long it took me

That works out at around £18.00 per hour for entertainment.

A couple of things I really love about Lego's approach to this particular model:
1969 componenets - the number is the same as the year of the first moon landing.
The use of multiple colour parts for the internal structure - It means that the illustrated assembly instructions need only have one edition which can be understood in any country, regardless of language. Maybe not so clever for those who are challenged when it comes to differentiating colours.
The level of detail - The blue stands which support the Lego model horizontally, are plausibly reminiscent of those which support the real thing at Kennedy Space Centre

They could've used any old plastic granules that they happened to have lying around, to injection mould those.

Lego Kwaliti.

That's unusual for them to put up a helpful sign IME.
May the Good Lord bless those who have been allocated their own darkness.

^This.
Exactly.
She used to blow me kisses when I cycled past.
I'm under the impression that I wasn't the only cyclist she did this to.
I think it was part of her 'routine'.
A big plus for my commute.

More stump, less living then.

^^Is it good for a living tree to have that done to it?

Anyone seen the high fivin', dancing, acrobatic lollipop woman in Markhouse Road?
Her gyrations gain her way more attention than any hi-viz ever will.
The kids love her.

So the anagram algorithms have been doing overtime.
I have a sprained ankle, rendering me as good as immobile for the immediately forseeable.
That's my excuse, anyway.
Someone, please...just ride out to B***l*y, it isn't so difficult.

I think you are on the money there - this one doesn't have MDFCTA written anywhere on it.

Or alternatively.....
Using an automatic centre punch, punch a deep mark close to the circumference of the sheared bolt. Then, insert the punch into the mark, and punch tangentially to rotate the bolt. I've managed to remove a sheared 5mm Ø bolt from a seat post using this method, so an 8mm Ø should be easy.

I don't have one, but what about asking for a bike box from Chris Compton at Compton Cycles in Catford?
Last time I needed a bike box, he obliged.

Good call.

I understand Crumpler's origins lie in camera bagging kit - but I've no experience of this.
As far as their courier / messenger bags are concerned, I think they turf out good quality and good looking kit. Chrome would probably be another contender, but while their products are tough as old boots (my everyday choice of bag) they don't do it for me on the aesthetics front. And they have floppy seat-belt strappage.....

If you were happy with the quality of your Timbuk2, I'll be surprised if you aren't delighted with Crumpler's offerings . Having owned both, I'd say they're in different leagues, in terms of quality.
@greenhell - Some srsly nice quality products on their site.

Zoom in on one of the pics of the strappage on Muli Messenger L.
It looks a bit cam-like to me......

Have you looked at what Crumpler have to offer?

Their shoulder straps aren't seat-belt floppy.

On a roll...... :)
S'nobad for this time of year !
I think I know where that is - on the way back from Brommers.?

Since 2006 I've had three of these (one in each bag).

Not as pretty as the Silca but more than adequately does the job.
I'm not convinced about the claimed 160 psi - but then, I never go beyond 6 or 7 bar.
I think Rutland Cycles are currently doing a deal on them.

ETA - I've tried other mini-pumps from Topeak and invariably returned them for a refund as they were utter shite.

I surprised myself by guessing it almost immediately.
A bit more obscure than Fox's clue - but it could put you in the right place.

Good tag.
No chance of me getting to it tho.
